links!

i have been opening fics for x-men: first class in tabs and then not reading them at all so i'm not sure that i actually care about getting into the fandom.

some links:

+the person of interest intersection by primetime
fic for the middleman, wendy/lacey that is fantastic

+i would make a post about how awesome frank turner is but i think that the ruckus has covered it far better. but i really do recommend listening to glory hallelujah, which i will probably play at high volume for most of the five days i have my house to myself

+an adorable boy did the doctor's speech from the pandorica opens and it's, well, adorable

+pretend you're a baseball fan and read patrick flood's post about the pittsburgh pirates. it's done entirely pirate-speak. pirate-speak.



now i'm going to try to forget about the usmnt losing to panama (wtf?) and instead dwell on the fact that my blind pick for the stanley cup finals is one win away from being champions.

Is X-Men: First Class good?

Also, going to read that Middleman fic now.

OKAY NOW I'M DONE

"Is it going to be weird if I still don't talk about my job?" Wendy asks, closing her eyes.

Lacey sighs, laying a path of lazy kisses across her cheeks. "No - wait, does it let you always respect the agency, autonomy and basic rights of all animal life?"

LOL

i love that fic so much i kind of want to print it out and draw hearts all over it.

x-men is good, if you ignore a few blemishes. to borrow something i saw elsewhere, it's fannishly good, but a bit flawed on an intellectual level. but i think i liked thor a bit better.
